Wherever mountains glisten with frozen ribbons, imaginations ignite with possibility. An ambassador favorite, our premier soft shell for alpine and ice climbing now comes in a full-zip version for added versatility. The Knifeblade’s Power Shield Pro fabric – a breakthrough in soft-shell technology – fills the gap between traditional hard and soft shells, offering unprecedented water resistance, wind protection, stretch and breathability in a 3-layer package. The Knifeblade has a pliable feel, slides easily over layers, and is durable against big-route abuse. It has three water-resistant zippered pockets (one chest and two handwarmers, placed above pack and harness waistbelts), low-profile cuff closures and Touch Point System embedded cord locks in the hood and hem for quick adjustment. The helmet-compatible, 2-way-adjustable hood with laminated visor provides optimal visibility in bad conditions. Full-reach gusseted underarm panels allow overhead mobility.
